[MPICH] Maximum message length

[James S Perrin]

Hi,
	As the in Sends/Recvs message count is defined as an int (32bit) is the maximum 
message count 2^31 or (2^31)/sizeof(datatype) ie the number of bytes is limited 
to 2^31 ? Is this behaviour implementation specific?

	I need to move data > 2^31 on 64bit systems (though this is a computationally 
rare occuarance).

Regards
James
